Of all the possible days this could have happened, THEY selected this day for this action against the USA DOD

(from internet transcript)
excerpt, Chapter 34
For a long time, for days (how many days? who knew? not the Trashcan Man, that was for sure), Donald Merwin Elbert, known to the intimates of his dim and confusing grade-school past as the Trashcan Man, had wandered up and down the streets of Powtanville, Indiana, cringing from the voices in his head, dodging away and putting up his hands to shield against stones thrown by ghosts.
Hey, Trashcan!
Hey, Trashcan Man, digging you, Trash! Lit any good fires this week?
What’d ole lady Semple say when you lit up her pension check, Trash?
Hey, Trash-baby, wanna buy some kerosene?
How’d you like those shock-treatments down in Terre Haute, Trashie?
The Stand - complete edition, by Stephen King
excerpt, Chapter 34
Maybe now he could be just Don Elbert again instead of the Trashcan Man, the way Carley Yates was now just Carl Yates who sold cars at the Stout Chrysler-Plymouth dealership here in town. Except that Carl Yates was gone, everyone was gone, and maybe it was too late for him to be anyone anymore.
And he wasn’t sitting against the wall of the Scrubba-Dubba anymore; he was a mile or more to the northwest of town, walking along 130, and the town of Powtanville was laid out below him like a scale-model community on a kid’s HO railroad table. The tanks were only half a mile away and he had a toolkit in one hand and a five-gallon can of gas in the other.
Oh it was so bad but —
So after Wendell Elbert was underground, Sally Elbert had gotten a job at the Powtanville Café and sometime, in the first or second grade, her one remaining chick, Donald Merwin Elbert, had started lighting fires in people’s trashcans and running away.
Look out girls here comes the Trashcan Man, he’ll burn up ya dresses!
Eeeek! A freeeak!
It wasn’t until he was in the third grade or so that the grown-ups found out who was doing it and then the sheriff came around, good old Sheriff Greeley, and he guessed that was how the man who cut his father down in front of the Methodist Church ended up being his stepfather.
Hey, Carley, got a riddle for ya: How can your father kill your father?
I dunno, Petey, how?
I dunno either, but it helps if you’re the Trashcan Man!
HeeheehahahaHawHawHaw!
He was standing at the head of the graveled drive now, his shoulders aching from carrying the toolkit and the gas. The sign on the gate read CHEERY PETROLEUM COMPANY, INC. ALL VISITORS MUST CHECK IN AT THE OFFICE! THANKS!
